浅谈韩柳论事析理之文内容气象的差异

韩愈柳宗元同为复古运动领袖,为文却个性独具。文章主要以其论事析理类文章为考察对象,力图从内容、复古理念、文与道连接模式等方面来把握他们行文风格及个性表现上的差异,并揭示这种差异产生的原因。韩愈在论述重大问题时多用正面展开的途径,主题思想的正统性决定了风格的特征;柳宗元则张扬理性,其论事依据发自严密的逻辑,思力贯透的强度和深度皆非韩愈能比。

On the Difference Between Han Yu and Liu Zongyuan in Their Artistic Practices

Han Yu and Liu Zongyuan had their individual features though they were both the leaders of Restoration Movement for literature. This thesis is basically an expounding of their stylistic differences from aspects like content, restoration ideology, and some important matter like the combination mode between wen and dao, with their argumentation articles as the object. The reason to bring about such difference is also analyzed. It is found that Han Yu, when dealing with some matters of importance, tended to assume the direct approach, which was influenced by the orthodox ideas, while Liu pursued a reasonable and logical style, his rationality being never rivaled by Han Yu.
